New Site For Maryland/Kentucky Cousins

I was very excited today to open my email and find that a new site has been developed for those of us who have Maryland ancestors that were part of the migration to Kentucky in 1785 and beyond.

Christopher and Leslie Hielig and Chug Roberts have launched http://www.md2ky.com/ and I have to say that I am very excited about the site already. They have sections for Books, Family Sites and Sources, Genral Genealogy Resources, and MD and KY Resources.

They have already posted some very interesting articles and always direct you to other sites for further information. Anyone with ancestors in Southern Maryland or were part of the migration to the Kentucky counties of Marion, Nelson and Washington should add this to their reader. They are also very open to adding information from those of who have information to share that would benefot all of us.

About Me

I have been researching my family since I was a teenager and get more excited and interested as the years go by. Family history is mystery, detective work, romance novels and thrillers, combined with determination, good manners, and a love of cemeteries and old buildings.
I am a native Hoosier and proud of it, can honestly say that every stage of parenting (even the teenage years) have been my favorite, and have been lucky to have two parents who believed that traveling the country and world when I was growing up was more important than a second car, a bigger house, or a multitude of other luxuries. Of course, traveling was also less expensive 30+ years ago and a lot more fun too.
I am a retired clinical social worker who worked with trauma children and teenagers and their families in challenging situations and enjoy those times when I run into one of those now grown men or women and see where their lives are now.
By The way, my door is always open for new family members, inquiring minds, and anyone with a question or a concern. I can be contacted at k2genfam (at) insightbb.com.
